Football Infrastructure
A high-performance, real-time football match event streaming and viewer engagement analytics platform designed to handle 100K+ concurrent viewers.
Overview
Football Infrastructure ingests game events (goals, passes, fouls, etc.) and correlates them with viewer engagement data (reactions, comments, shares) to provide real-time analytics for sports streaming platforms.
Key Features
- High Throughput: Handle 10K+ events per minute
- Real-time Analytics: Sub-second latency for engagement metrics
- Scalable Architecture: Horizontal scaling via Docker Swarm
- Production Ready: SSL/TLS, monitoring, CI/CD included
